Barbecued Pecans: A New Twist

We like our pecans sweet here at Superior Nut Store. That’s why we carry so many different varieties of candied pecans. But there are so many different ways to enjoy this delicious nuts. We thought we had a selection for every taste here—from savory to sweet. We’re going to share with you a fun southern recipe for making some barbequed pecans. It’s a fun and different way to enjoy this snack food.

All you’re going to need to make your barbequed pecans is four cups of our pecan halves. You can use raw or roasted pecans—it’s really up to you. You’ll also need:

2 tablespoons of butter

¼ cup of Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon of ketchup

A little bit of hot sauce

And the pecan halves

Once you have everything together, you’re ready to begin making your delicious barbequed pecans. Just melt the butter in a large saucepan or skillet. Once the butter has melted, you can go ahead and add the Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and hot sauce. Make sure this mixture is blended well before you add the pecans.

When you’re ready to add the pecans, put them into the saucepan or skillet with the butter and sauce mixture. Stir the pecans around to ensure that they are coated completely. Then spoon the pecans out onto a lightly greased glass or nonstick baking dish. Make sure you spread them out evenly across the surface. Toast them at 400 degrees for about fifteen minutes—take the time to stir them frequently.

Once you’ve removed the pecans from the oven, turn them out onto a paper towel and sprinkle them with a little bit of salt.

You can always vary this recipe to taste by adding different ingredients to the sauce. You might try adding some garlic or hot peppers to the mix. These are some fun ways to spice up your pecans!

If you’re in the mood for something a little more conventional, you can still find it here at Superior Nut Store. We have the butter toffee pecans, praline pecans, milk chocolate pecans, and dark chocolate pecans that you’ve been craving. But if you should decide that you want to do something a little different, you can pick up some of our raw pecan halves and try your hand at a fun recipe.
